[QUOTE="Andy, post: 203757, member: 5096"] When are the classes? Just before lunch or later in the afternoon? He might be getting hungry and/or tired. He might focus so much in class that the transition to a busy hallway is too fast. His angry feeling may be one of overwhelmed with business and noise of the hallway. Growing up, I always had problems with the disorganization and chaos of the hallway between classes. It usually raised my anxiety a tab or so. I often wanted to shout, "Will everyone just SHUT UP! Just quietly get your books and get out of the hallway!" Hallways are anything but structured and it can be hard to transition from a classroom to the hallway back to a classroom. Does he have any coping skills for calming down? It may help if he takes an extra minute or so to do his breathing skills before enterring the hallway. Have him focus on shutting out the noise and movement in the hallway and focus only on getting to his locker and the next class. Maybe consider having the teachers allow him to be dismissed one or two minutes before the other kids to give him time to reach his locker and get the next books before the chaos starts? Does he get snacks in the morning or afternoon? Make sure he is not getting hungry about 2:00. I never could understand why there is not an afternoon snack time. [/QUOTE]
